Askmewhats Version: "Smokey Green-Eyed Monstress"

I seldom use greens because I don't have much green e/s in the past! LOL (what an excuse!) But I found myself leaning onto greens as greens look better on my skin tone than other dark colors! With my chinky and puffy eyes, I have to be careful in choosing a smokey eye look as it can make or break my overall look! (most of the time BREAK)

A little note about me, I am NOT a jealous GF or Wife, but if given a chance to be a green-eyed monstress, I can definitely do my part!!! For a day....VAMPY!

Here's my version of using different shades of greens to create a smokey green look! Hope you like it!

Let me break down the products I've used for my Green-Eyed Monstress Look!

1. Maybelline Trio Eye Shadow Fresh Spring Green - all over lids
2. L'oreal Soft Effects Moss - crease area
3. Milani Garden Mist - inner corner of the eyes
4. L'oreal Soft Effects Golden - highlighter

Not numbered:

• L'oreal Hip Cream in Secretive - as base
• Paul & Joe eyebrow pencil no. 2 - brows
• Stila Smudgepots in Black
• PAC B02 - blush
• 4U2 Lipstick no. 7 (mixed with concealer and Nivea Caregloss)
  

Green-minded day...hmmmm....
Wanna watch X-rated films with me?
UH OH...am I in trouble? lol
(excuse me, I am over 18!)
Have a happy day!!! I am happy!!! FRIDAY I'M IN LOVE!

Askmewhats Reviews: PAC Blush On

I have been starting to get addicted to blushes now. And as read in my previous review on the PAC e/s, I got really impressed with their e/s quality so it's time for me to venture on their blushes!

I have bought this a couple of weeks or almost a month ago and I gave it a test first before doing this review. When you go to the PAC Counter and ask for their bestselling blush, the SA will definitely give you this blush color.

PAC No. B02

** Refill costs Php299.00 (approx $6.50)

The color is matte, peachy coral shade

When swatched 2x, without base



When applied on cheeks



As seen both sides

Askmewhats says ---

Pros

• affordable
• pigmented
• color comes off really nice and "natural"
• stays on (note from author: I have dry skin)
  

Cons

• few blush choices
  
• some colors have their own "case" while others are available ONLY in refill form

Tips

• they are currently on sale til August 31st for Php199.00 ($4.35) $instead of Php299.00 ($6.50) <--- Darn! I bought too early!
• OUT OF BLUSH TOPIC: if you are starting out on make-up and you needed an e/s palette on basic colors....here's a good news for people who planned to shop
  

ORIGINAL PRICED at Php 2,000 ($43.45)
ON SALE for Php 1,499.00 ($33.00)

Good while stocks last til August 31, 2008!!!

Your Askmewhats didn't purchase this e/s palette because I bought a couple of their products before their sale period. *weeps* That's why I wanted to take a photo and share it to you guys who are still "planning" to buy coz I am a "PRO SAVER!!!!"

Overall

PAC indeed is a good brand with promising products. They don't have a lot of color choices though.

Will I repurchase?

Yes!

Who's planning to purchase?
It's funny coz I'm getting jealous on whoever's getting this! LOL

Nail Art Tutorial: Simple Flower Blues

Hiya Askmewhats readers! Another nail art tutorial! A simple yet true cool blue as I've used the wonderful TFS Rainbow Blue Pearl as a base. (never thought I can use this color)

Step 1:

After cleaning your nails, put on nail polish base. Apply 2 coats of any cool blue nail polish. I use The Face Shop Nail Polish in Rainbow Blue Pearl.

Step 2:

Wait for a couple of minutes to let the polish dry (in my case, I used blow dryer). Create petals by drawing a tear-drop shape (instead of the usual dots) I created 4 petals instead of the usual 5 as this petals are bigger in size. Create 2 dots for that "shooting star effect"

A closer look

Step 4:

Using any color, create a "bud". I used yellow as it will pop up more!

Step 5:

Using a pink nail art pen, create dots just below the black dots, to make the nail art more colorful

Step 6:

Using a glittery nail art pen, apply it on top of the black petal making sure to have some glitters on it to create a "lively" illusion

Step 7:

Top it with a clear polish to protect the nail art from chipping

Step 8:

Look back and enjoy your creation. Simple yet teeny-bop-py!

Inspired to do your own?
Do not be afraid!
I don't even care if it isn't perfect!
Imperfection is ART :D
